Before you go

How to eat in Madrid

  1. Book Botín

    Sobrino de Botín is almost always full: book ahead on its website, especially for dinner.

  2. Local mealtimes

    Madrid lunches between 2 and 4 pm and dines from 9 pm. The markets serve all day and are good for a snack in between.

  3. San Miguel mid-morning

    San Miguel Market is packed at lunchtime and in the evening; mid-morning is easier. San Antón in Chueca is usually calmer.

Checked on November 3, 2026. Opening hours and tickets can change, so check each place’s website before you go.
